Trzeci rabin z dynastii Slonimer
Autograph letter signed by R. Avraham Weinberg, third Slonimer Rebbe.
[Bialystok, summer 1929].
The letter was sent to a chassid from Eretz Israel who travelled
to Vienna for medical reasons. In the letter, the Rebbe mentions the Chortkover Rebbe and the
Husyatiner Rebbe, both scions of the Ruzhin dynasty living in Vienna, and mentions his own plans to
travel to Vienna for the Knessiah Gedolah of Agudat Yisrael in Elul, 1929. The Rebbe instructs his
chassid to consult with the Chortkover Rebbe, and writes: "…It is very difficult for me to write to
tsaddikim, and I have met the Husyatiner Rebbe only once. Nevertheless, I am enclosing a letter to
the Chortkover Rebbe, which you should deliver into his hand…". Thereafter, the Rebbe asks about the
chassid and his wife and blesses her with a speedy recovery.
Rebbe Avraham Weinberg (the
second) of Baranovichi, author of Beit Avraham (1884-1933) was the son of the author of Divrei
Shmuel. From 1916, he jointly led the Slonim Chassidim with his eldest brother R. Yissachar Leib,
however the majority of Chassidim followed R. Avraham. He settled in Baranovichi where he
established the Torat Chesed Yeshiva. He maintained close contact with his Chassidim in Eretz
Israel, which he visited twice. His books, Beit Avraham, are well-known for their profound Chassidic
philosophy.
